Certainly, it is not easy to move some conflicts forward and achieve a solution, but evidently there are many tools to do so among which are various forms of Conflict Transformations as well. Conflicts are producing divisions among people and they divide societies which have previously been developing together and shared both resources and final products. It is our aim to research how such division lines which are a direct outcome of conflicts have and could be broken down in order to start a procedure of development and thus reconciliation after all. Also it is necessary to see what tools and possibilities we have in various conflicts by researching and applying the most prominent ones which are able to produce the necessary changes. Our aim will be to research the most advanced conflicts in the EU neighbourhood and The Middle East and be able to understand them and apply their solutions to some other conflicts. Whilst having a conflict in the EU neighbourhood in Ukraine, we necessarily should not forget to help advance and resolve other conflicts which are awaiting it for many decades. In specific we will research the tools used to resolve conflicts by EU in the cases of Kosovo some Middle Eastern conflicts and ultimately its potentials in Ukraine. Although such post-conflict countries are among the poorest regions in the world, they all had a stable economy, administration and the rule of law previously which is the most necessary tool and precondition for any kind of development after all. Now in our case studies we would like to point out the most prominent and positive examples which could then later be applied to conflicts in other countries and in specific in the Middle East, North Africa and other regions. Even the smallest advances in societies or in the ways of communication can bring positive outcomes in conflicts and ultimately give a hope to citizens for development and prosperity in their own country. This is also very important for frozen conflicts in which the idea of reconciliation is lost and hope is gone thus leaving societies far from transition, conflict transformation and development possibilities.
